“In our business, the best measure of efficiency is the ability to create custom parts and assemblies that fit together correctly the first time. SOLIDWORKS greatly increases the odds that we consistently achieve that goal, not just during initial assembly but also whenever we need to produce replacement parts for …

"SolidWorks has been a great change from our previous CAD software. It helped us to quickly create concepts, review them in vivid 3D detail with NASA, and develop a very sophisticated design."

"Industrial design and the design signature of our products have become critically important, and we believed that we might be able to handle increasingly complex shapes more easily with a more modern CAD system."

“SOLIDWORKS Simulation helped us minimize trial and error in testing the safety of our robots through finite element analysis. Making physical mock-ups is very time-consuming. Therefore, we use SOLIDWORKS to visually prototype parts before we physically assemble them.”

“SOLIDWORKS has been instrumental in helping us minimize design time and costs through the use of parametric design, sheet metal, weldment, and structural analysis tools SOLIDWORKS associativity enables automatic updating of all assembly and part drawings, shortening development time between product cycles.”

“By making the switch to SOLIDWORKS, we have cut our design cycle from 16 weeks to less than 12 weeks. We used to create three prototypes prior to deciding on a production model; now, we only need one. This has saved a minimum of 160 man hours and substantial prototyping …

"What used to take a day, we can now do in an hour."

"Without SOLIDWORKS 3D modeling tools, the development cycle would have taken a lot longer, and we would not be on the cusp of production."

“Each year a significant percentage of accepted entrepreneurs are building companies focused on physical products and devices. Those start-ups rely on access to advanced design, simulation, and communication technology to speed development of their products.”

“Some of them also take advantage of SolidWorks simulation tools to test design performance, thereby reducing the number of prototypes required and reaching a final, functional prototype more efficiently. Access to SolidWorks tools enables them to compress the time required to solve problems and ultimately discover whether their ideas are …

“We both come from families of blue-collar workers, and my father passed away from a heart attack on a construction site."

“We needed to be able to handle any brand of helmet while increasing machine capacity to 36 helmets to satisfy ridership demands. Using SolidWorks software, we were able to develop the sophisticated internal helmet delivery mechanisms and assemblies required to meet our goals.”

"The number one reason I chose 3DEXPERIENCE is that you can manage the data and share it, being certain that everyone is using the latest version. By uploading the data to the cloud, you can share design data while staying at home."

“Thanks to SOLIDWORKS, we were able to reduce the design time of a machine from 10 to six months. Now, the quality of our 3D designs, manufacturing drawings, technical documentation and marketing content is much more valued by our customers.”

"Meso used SOLIDWORKS software to develop ladle and punch bowl designs that were consistent with the Courvoisier brand. Using SOLIDWORKS surfacing tools, Meso accurately modeled each bottle and designed the ladles so that they would wrap around each bottle perfectly."
